CIBERSEGURIDAD

Norbolsa | Both companies are considering a potential strategic alliance in cybersecurity, cyber defence and artificial intelligence to bid for major defence contracts in Spain, following the example of Tess Defence. This would enable them to bid jointly for future contracts worth over €1 billion. The model would consist of a consortium open to further partners and backed by the government, and would seek to create a sovereign technology platform to strengthen security and the management of strategic data at a national level.
